DNA Lab

Boston Children's Hospital, Waltham CampusCompleted: 2011Waltham, MA

This clinical genetic diagnostic testing laboratory expands the lab services for the Waltham campus of Boston Children’s Hospital. The new space offers resources that will prove invaluable to the hospital’s endeavor to understand and map the human genome.

Our priority for this project was the laboratory’s functionality. We designed arrays of lab benches to provide highly functional work zones, which can be used with the greatest possible ease and efficiency. Core support areas containing shared equipment further maximize the space’s utility.

State-of-the-art technology was also integrated into the space, a measure which ensures that the hospital is fully equipped to conduct the important genetic research that is the lab’s ultimate purpose.
